398 Jealous?
Singtan helplessly shook his head and asked," Are they really sisters?"
Han Zihao nodded his head and said," Yes Sir they are."
" Why does Beth stay with her sister?" Singtan asked.
" According to the neighbours and their landlord when their mother was in her death bed, she had asked Ms Beth to take care of Julia as she was careless and ignorant since a really young age. So because of that promise, Ms Beth was staying with Julia and tolerating her absurd behaviour but now Ms Beth doesn't stay with Julia." Han Zihao said.
Singtan raised her eyebrows and asked," What do you mean?"
" Ms Beth is staying with her paternal first cousin, Mr Peter Hembron since the last two or three days. Peter Hembron has a wife and son who happen to like Ms Beth a lot. Peter also dotes and adores Ms Beth a lot. In order to save Ms Beth from Julia he took her away along with him." Han Zihao said.
" What does Peter Hembron do and where does he stay?" Singtan asked.
" Sir Peter Hembron happens to be one of our employee and he works under the management department. He stays in UNO compound which has been provided by the company." Han Zihao said.
Singtan smiled and said," Alright that is even better. In the future it will be easier for me to talk to him about Songpa's and Beth's wedding."
Han Zihao widened his eyes in shock and said," Sir wedding- I mean-" They haven't even started dating and here his boss was talking about their wedding.
Singtan smiled and asked," Zihao how long have you known Songpa?"
" Five and a half years from now sir." Han Zihao said.
" I know him since 7 years. Now you tell me with his personality and nature what do you think will happen if he decides to pursue a woman?" Singtan asked.
Han Zihao thought for a while and then shook his head.
Singtan chuckled and said," He will marry her or no one else. So sooner or later, they are going to get married. Better start saving for Songpa's wedding gift."
Han Zihao vigorously nodded his head and said," Okay Sir."
" Is everything else ready?" Singtan asked.
Han Zihao nodded his head and said," Yes Sir But-"
" What is it?" Singtan asked.
Scratching his forehead, Han Zihao asked," I know I am a bit out of the topic but why do you care about Songpa so much? I mean-"
" So you are trying to say that I don't care about you?" Singtan asked.
" No sir I mean you do care about Zechan and me but you seem to be bias towards Songpa every time." Han Zihao said.
Singtan chuckled and said," Zihao are you jealous?"
Han Zihao widened his eyes in shock and said," What Sir? No no why would I be jealous? I am just curious."
" Songpa is slightly more special to me than you and Zechan. Anyway where are the cards, passbooks and other documents?" Singtan asked.
" It's inside the white envelope sir." Han Zihao said.
" Hmm Okay. They will come over during lunch so let's finish work before that." Singtan said before getting up from his seat and walking towards the door.
....
Hardware store.
Fixing his hairstyle for the 9999th time, Songpa buttoned his suit before getting down from the car.
The two guards who were closely following them couldn't help but whisper amongst themselves.
" This time don't make the same mistake. Don't talk about Ms Beth in front of boss." a guard said.
The second guard nodded his head and said," Okay I won't."
After entering ten hardware store, Songpa smiled when he saw Beth.
Walking towards her, Songpa tapped her shoulder and said," Hey."
" How can I-" Beth widened her eyes in shock when she saw who it was.
" Oh my God Songpa is it you?" Beth asked.
Songpa pouted his lips and said," Well I don't have any twin brother so yes it is me."
Beth chuckled and said," What I meant is that what are you doing here?"
Songpa scratched his forehead and said," Well I wanted to buy few things for my toolbox so I am here but I did not know that this is the hardware store that you work in."
The two guards who were standing next to Songpa started coughing vigorously.
Beth smiled and said," Ohh so you are here to buy things and here I was happy thinking that you actually came all the way here just to meet me."
Songpa widened his eyes in shock and said," Yes Yes I actually came here to meet you. I mean to buy things and to meet you. Actually I was missing-I mean-"
Pulling his cheeks, Beth chuckled and said," Why are you so cute? Well I know you are here just to meet me but you have to buy everything that you need for your tool box from here itself. So what are the things that you want to buy?"
Touching his cheeks, Songpa smiled and said," Everything."
Beth widened her eyes in shock and asked," Everything? Are you sure? There are more than 800+ things in this store."
Songpa nodded his head and said," Yes."
Beth shook her head and said," Why everything? I'll pick up some important things for you. You should not waste money like that. You will need it in the future you know."
" Alright I'll listen to you then." Songpa said.
.....
Somewhere in country S.
" Sir we have taken out the photograph." A subordinate said.
" Show me." Junjop said.
Taking the photograph from his hand, Junjop raised his eyebrows and said," I have seen him somewhere but where?"
Thinking for a while, Junjop said," Go and get the blue folder from inside."
The subordinate nodded his head and left.
After opening the blue folder, Junjops expression darkened.
" Who is this man? What did they say?" Junjop asked.
" Sir this man happens to be the leader of a very powerful gang of US. He calls himself Smith there. He is said to be from country S. So that man wanted to find out more information about him." The subordinate said.
Junjop frowned and said," He is the only heir of the Xie Enterprise, Xie Yufan. He is the youngest son of the Xie family."
The subordinate widened his eyes in shock and asked," But sir isn't the Xie family clean?"
" That is what I thought but it isn't like that. If Xie Yufan is really how that US guy is telling us then I am afraid that it will be very difficult to target the Xie's." Junjop said.
" What do we do now sir?" The subordinate asked.
" We need the funds. Tell that man that the information is ready. Ask him to send the cash. After we receive it, send him all the details about Xie Yufan." Junjop said.
The subordinate nodded his head and left.
